in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone,

I joined up here quite a few months ago and did really well for the first couple of weeks, then lost all my motivation. And now I'm back to give it another try!
I'm 32 years old and live in Auckland, New Zealand. My husband and I are trying to get pregnant with our first child, and losing a bit of weight and getting fitter can only help, right? I've lost around 7 pounds so far, but have noticed my weight creeping in the wrong direction over the last couple of months. :frown: I still have about 20 I need to get off. My motivation at the moment is that summer is on its way, and I would really love to be able to dig out all my old summer tops and singlets and think I looked okay in them, instead of hiding in long sleeves and sweatshirts cos I'm embarrassed by how I look. Hopefully this will be the time I can finally make a difference and get my weight sorted once and for all!
